They redid the textures, the lighting, the effects work, practically every aspect of the graphics, that's definitely a full facelift in my book.

No. The textures used are the original high-resolution ones created during development of the original game, which used scaled-down versions of the textures to match the GameCube's hardware capabilities.

Doesn't change the fact that it's using much higher resolution textures than the original game, so a significant improvement there before we even get to completely redone lighting or the addition of modern techniques like ambient occlusion. It's a massive upgrade.
